Notice of Public Hearing: Regional Measure 3

Notice of Public Hearing

• 公開聽證會通知：區域 3 號提案
• Aviso de Audiencia Pública: la Medida Regional 3 (RM3)

In June 2018, Bay Area voters approved Regional Measure 3 (RM3), a toll increase on the region's state-owned toll bridges by $1 beginning Jan. 1, 2019, by another $1 in January 2022, and a final $1 increase in January 2025. In fiscal year 2024-25, the RM3 toll revenue is expected to generate approximately $277.3 million in funding for specified capital and operating projects to reduce traffic congestion in the region. Pursuant to Section 30914.7(e) of the California Streets and Highways Code, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) is required to consult with the project sponsor and hold a public hearing in advance of consideration of action to program or reassign RM3 funds to a new or other project or modify the project’s scope. 

MTC proposes to modify the scope of Project 20. This proposed change is within the same bridge corridor or for investments consistent with the intent of RM3.

At its regularly scheduled March 12, 2025, meeting, MTC’s Programming and Allocations Committee will hold a public hearing on the proposed change to the RM3 capital program described in MTC Resolution No. 4621, Revised, and summarized below: 

• Project No. 20, Highway 101-Marin/Sonoma Narrows
• Current Total RM3 Funding: $120,000,000
• Proposed Total RM3 Funding: $120,000,000
• Proposed Funding Change: $0

Action: Modify scope to include the high occupancy vehicle lane hours signage on Highway 101 between Arata Lane in Windsor and North Bridge Boulevard in Sausalito.

Bay Area residents are invited to comment on the proposed funding and scope change to RM3 identified above and further described in MTC Resolution 4621, Revised. 

A public hearing to receive public testimony on this proposed funding change will be held during MTC’s Programming and Allocations Committee meeting on:

Wednesday, March 12, 2025, at 9:45 a.m.
Bay Area Metro Center Board Room – First Floor
375 Beale Street, San Francisco, CA 94105

Written comments will be accepted until April 3, 2025 and may be submitted to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission’s (MTC) Public Information Office at 375 Beale St, Suite 800, San Francisco, CA 94105 or sent via e-mail to info@bayareametro.gov. Please include “2025 RM3 Projects” in the subject line. Written comments are due by 5 p.m. on Thursday, April 3, 2025.  Oral testimony will be received until the close of the public hearing on March 12, 2025.
